successful placement of c.7.7% of the Company's market capitalisation, equating to R1.5 billion and the issue of c.88.2
million new ordinary shares.

The Bookbuild Shares were placed at a price of R17.00 per share, representing a 4.60% and 4.63% discount to the pre-
launch Vukile closing share price and 10-day VWAP respectively on 09 September 2024.

Subject to approval by the JSE Limited, listing and trading of the Bookbuild Shares is expected to commence at 09h00
on 13 September 2024.
